Whoa.

Firstly - edit your post to take out your NTL IP address (82.xx.xx.xx).

Secondly - that tells us that you are currently connected by USB to the modem as well as wireless. The Cable Modem only supports one connection at a time. eg If BOTH USB and LAN are connected only one will be working!
I would suggest -
1. Disconnect USB from Modem
2. Shutdown PC
3. power off (unplug) Cable Modem & Router
4. after 30secs power on CM (Only lan cable between modem and router should be conneted)
5. when lights settle, power on router.
6. Restart PC and connect to wireless lan.
7. Try browsing to Cableforum.
